Why do I need to add this interest to my list...

I understand your predicament, as I also oftentimes encounter the same. I just pick one of my interests that relates closest to the discussion I would start with. Take blouse as an example, I'll start this discussion by picking on my interest on "people" or "life".

Hi neildc, but what a fascinating and totally engrossing interest to add, just think how many discussions could be created by the mere mention of the word blouse, so many come immediately to mind that you are bound to generate responses by the million. 'Do people still wear blouses', 'do you iron your blouse', what colour blouse do you like to wear', 'do you worry about dropping your pizza topping on your blouse', 'should men wear blouses too', 'wear would you wear your blouse''does your blouse have to be designer label''do you believe as I do that puff sleeves will return to blouses'. Really neildc, just go ahead and make the interest, I could literally sit here all day coming up with wonderful new topics about blouses. Of course the draw back would be having to read all those dull of ditchwater responses you receive and having to come up with quality witty responses Now I have to ask you neildic if you are actually aware that in western culture a blouse is not a tee shirt, but a ladies pretty shirt with buttons most often worn to an office. In many countries this fashion trend is fading out very fast due to the ironing involved, just wondering if in your culture you are actually speaking of a tee shirt? in which case you can think of your own endless topics.

You could start your own interest and call it "not interested in a blouse" and then use it to get your point across I bet that when myLot started out they just didn't envisage the situation we have now. As you say so many duplicate interests plus all the ones that are useless and have never even been used

I know what you mean, Neil. Sometimes, I also want to start a discussion about something that I'm not particularly interested in normally. I think we should be able to post a discussion in any interest group we want without having to select that interest first as one of our favorites. It's a pain in the behind, but you can always "de-select" it as a favorite after you've posted your discussion. It's a pain because you first have to select it as one of your favorites, even if it's not. But, I guess myLot is like anything else in life. It has it's problems. Maybe, if enough people write to the administration here about it, they'll change that rule about having to have an interest in your favorites before you can post a discussion there.

A good figure ! I know your meaning,you just want a naked girl,Yeah? 1.Start discussion without any interesting group here,just put on your favourite tag 2.Create a interest group with any name you want to add here by yourself,then you will be able to do as one wishes 3.You do not hate girl,you do not hate blouse,a girl wearing a blouse,you just don't like this pair,Yeah?Now we have cleared this......something like sophism.It's so easy,if you don't mind trouble,then follow this step: join the interest you don't like---start a topic you are not interesting---add some tags you want---withdraw from it---over

Actually, we are not advised to accept every interest as our own interest. There is the "No thanks" button on the right side and we are free to use it. I guess there aren't any guidelines about it. I have encountered the same query before about Barney. Yeah, the one angryeve asked.

There are many benefits you get when you add interest if when you start a discussion sometims some topic may be not m,match your interest that you have in your list it may be based on other interest, so it always better to add interst there is a key regarding interest in mylot, add the interest to the top interest which people like most so that you can earn more response form the mylot so do not forget to add interet in your list... happy my lotting..

I think you can post a discussion about it even if you don't add it as your interest. Or even if you do, you can always remove it from your interests. Or you can also look for a more general interest like question and answers or philippines so that you won't have to add another interest.

Well, instead of adding an interest about it why not put it in under the, "questions & answers" category? or any other category that could be related to it, like women perhaps.

Ha!ha!ha! No problem my friend, anyway your wife do wear blouse after all! So you should be interested with blouse because that could be a great gift for your wife come Christmas! Just kidding! Have a nice day and hope you try scouting for a lovely blouse for your wife now!

Hi Neil, I think the best way is to call it clothing under interest, then it could be any item of clothing user can talk about. Hugs. Tamara

Even if i reply to a discussion that has to do with blouse, i wouldn't even bother adding an interest to it. just ignore it or don't add it.

hi neildc why not, why don't you add that interest if you don't like that interest you can add that interest because if you created a discussion there are so many you choice from your interest. many interest your have chance of from created discussion. for example do you like to create discussion and the interest is "Love" but you have no interest in love so how will you create a discussion that regarding to "LOVE" if you have no love interest. so i suggest to you that edit your interest add them to your interest. this is for you. not for me!
